Abstract
Theoretical and experimental analysis of factors limiting the quality of images being obtained by means of active coherence millimeter wave quasioptical imaging systems is carried out. Advantages of millimeter wave imaging based either on the artificial destruction of the quasimonochromatic radiation spatial coherence or on the proper choice of a temporal frequency spectrum composition of the spatially coherent radiation were theoretically and experimentally revealed. Two types of receiver arrays were applied to realize millimeter wave imaging.
